'dazzling stranger' review(s):
AboutThirty years after the release of his first album, Wizz makes his American recording debut with "Dazzling Stranger". It includes new songs as well as a selection of material he has recorded previously. Most of it is solo, although on a few tracks Wizz is joined by his son Simeon, with whom he's collaborated since the Lazy Farmer days. And even if you've never heard him before, it's certain that as you listen to Wizz now, you'll hear elements of phrasing and style and soul that have been absorbed and transmuted by the hundreds of people who've sucked at his fumes over the years. You've finally got direct access to the source material. Hope you can dig it. (from liner notes "Dazzling Stranger" CD, written by Byron Coley) |
